Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante
Greg Merson
Greg Merson

Greg Merson raised to 1,200 on the button, a player called out of the small blind, and Jean Gaspard put in a three-bet to 4,000 from the big blind. Merson four-bet to 9,000, the player in the small blind folded, and Gaspard called.

The flop fell {a-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{8-Clubs}, Gaspard check-called a bet of 10,600, and the turn was the {3-Hearts}. The {2-Clubs} completed the board, Gaspard led out for 15,000, and Merson quickly dropped a handful of black T100 chips in front of him, signifying a call.

Gaspard mucked, and Merson showed {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a pair of aces.
